If you want to save a workbook in MS Excel 365 so that only viewing is allowed and editing is restricted, which feature should you use?​

Correct option is A

The correct answer is (A) Read-Only Mode

Explanation:

• Read-Only Mode in MS Excel 365 allows you to save a workbook in such a way that editing is restricted and only viewing is permitted.
• When you open the workbook in Read-Only Mode, users can view the content but cannot make any changes to it unless they save it under a different name.
• This feature is particularly useful when you want to share the file without allowing others to modify the data.

Information Booster:

• Read-Only Mode can be set when saving a file or using the "Mark as Final" feature, which is also found under the File menu.
• It provides a level of protection without requiring passwords, though it can be bypassed by users who know how to remove it.

Additional Knowledge:

• Option B: Print Layout
• Incorrect. Print Layout refers to the view of how the document will look when printed, not a feature for restricting editing.
• Option C: Read Aloud
• Incorrect. Read Aloud is a feature for listening to the content of the workbook being read aloud, not related to restricting editing.
• Option D: Freeze Panes
• Incorrect. Freeze Panes is used to keep certain rows or columns visible while scrolling, but it doesn’t restrict editing.
